Do you think people post to TQC just to answer their own question? Like please care about my story?

I applied for a job a few weeks ago and I just called to check where they are in the hiring process. They said they were going to start interviews tomorrow and they hadn't seen my name in the pile, but they'd check again. I just went back to the website and it says that after a month, the applications get deleted. (I applied online.) It may have been a month since then.

What do I do? Do I call back and ask them to check while I'm on the phone or do I just apply again?

Laundry day  
How many clothes do you have, and can you break your answer down into specifics (how many shirts, pants, etc.)? For parents, how many different outfits do you have for your kids? Did it change based on their age? How often do you do laundry? Do you store off-season clothing elsewhere or is it all out in your closet/dresser?

Bonus questions: Do you have clothes in your closets that don't fit anymore? If you do, why? Please include whether you're male or female in your answer.

Internet outside of LJ?  
Do any of you use twitter?

What "social networking" sites do you frequent when you're not on LJ?

What kind of stuff do you still have from your days in high school?

I have a shoe box for every year of high school filled with random stuff and I don't know why I still hold on to it all! I have every note my roommate ever wrote to me, every schedule I ever had for cheerleading, movie stubs, dead flowers, both of my admissions letters to college, seriously everything ever. Maybe someday I will make a super scrapbook. The only thing I don't have is my certificate that I went through behind-the-wheel for driving, which is the only thing I actually need today.

From the end of class to 6pm there was nothing much that needed doing.  
I miss the days where I used to just go for walks in the afternoon in the rain with my umbrella for no reason other than I could, and because the scenery was so pretty- I miss school, how sad.

What can I do to keep these damn roly polys out of my house? I'm tired of vacuuming them up everyday. I live on a slab. Is there no hope?

I seriously am having a hard time bringing myself to validate these contracts when I know we've already done them once, but they are making me do it again anyway and I want to die.

She'd stopped reading the kind of women's magazine that talks about romance and knitting and started reading the kind of women's magazine that talks abot orgasms, but apart from making a mental note to have one if ever the occasion presented itself she dismissed them as only romance and knitting in a new form.

When you ask TQC a question, do you disable emailing of comments?

Do you often start answering questions and then delete your answers?  Why?

Inspired by unusual names, is there a law in North America that says a child has to have the last name of either parent?

If I wanted to make up a new last name for my kid (within reason, not some weirdo name like TinkerBell), I could do that, right?

It's just a matter of convention that we keep the same names, right?

What is your favourite towell? Pictures if you want :]

Edit
As in, like, bath towell? I went towell shopping today and it inspired me to ask a question. Also, there was a typo which i've fixed now.

idiomatic phrases  
Earlier this morning, unknownjJames used the phrase "I wouldn't touch it with a barge-pole." I've always heard the phrase, "I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole."

Can you think of any other examples where idiomatic phrases differ from region to region or country to country?

Google Reader  
I just started using Google Reader, and wonder if any of you could answer a question I have about it (as a google search didn't help me any). When I subscribe to a blog, does it send any kind of message to the blog's author? You know, like "chasmine17 has subscribed to your blog!". 

Thanks :).

Nostradamus and the rest of the world says the world is going to end in 2021. Do you think this prediction might turn out true? Could we prevent it, and what do you see the end of the world being like?


Does anyone else find her big hair completely ridiculous? Or am I the only one?
